The year 2017 was indeed a special one for Serena Williams. The American legend married Reddit co-founder, Alexis Ohanian, that year. The same year, she gave birth to her first child, Olympia. Additionally, she was coming on the back of winning the Australian Open 2017 title too. Serena had defeated her elder sister, Venus Williams, in the finals to lift her 23rd Grand Slam title.

Along with her strong performances on the court, Serena has replicated that success off the court too. Further, she shares a close bond with Alexis and Olympia and the trio is often seen sharing adorable moments on social media. Recently, she had a lovely gift for her husband.

Earlier, Alexis showered praise on his daughter, Olympia, for her scientific skills. He said, “I’m 39 today. Waking up with this little paleontologist was the best birthday gift I could’ve asked for. She will be my legacy — not founding @Reddit @Initialized, or even @sevensevensix (despite how ambitious our goals are) — making her proud is the lens through which I build.”
